Do you want to win the three million dollar jackpot of the Japanese New Year's Lottery ?   Why not buy your lottery tickets at the same place where the winning ticket was sold last year ?  The only problem is that you  will have to wait at least  two hours in line to buy your tickets !  I did not buy any lottery tickets there, or elsewhere. I have only gambled  with money once in my life.  I played pachinko, got a terrible headache from the loud noise and the cigarrete smoke, and lost 10 dollars.  This is not to say  that I am not a gambling man.  All photographers are gamblers.  If we are at the right place at the right time we win the jackpot. We usually have to play the game about 100,000 times before we can win !
